hda irq timeout

[christian.peper at kpn.com]

Yes we have that too! Haven't been able to put my finger on this yet. I
reported it to this list:
http://lists.us.dell.com/pipermail/linux-poweredge/2008-September/037352
.html
 
We're using RHEL AS 4u5 x86_64. Oh and it's unpatched (i.e. not using
el4_u5_patch). I should actually try to bring it upto patch and see if
that fixes it.
 
Didn't used to get that error, at least not as often. Lately we do.
All I could find was something related to DMA settings and/or ACPI.
 
I've found various reports of this error, always in relation to RHEL
4u5, 6 or 7.

	Hello,

	 

	We have a 2950 III running Redat AS 4.6 I386.

	 

	Under heavy load we get the following irq timeouts and ATAPI
reset in our syslog. 

	 

	[root at qa2950-1 ~]# dmesg | grep hda

	    ide0: BM-DMA at 0xfc00-0xfc07, BIOS settings: hda:DMA,
hdb:pio

	hda: TEAC DVD-ROM DV28EV, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

	hda: ATAPI 24X DVD-ROM drive, 198kB Cache, UDMA(33)

	hda: DMA disabled

	hda: irq timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }

	hda: irq timeout: error=0x00

	hda: ATAPI reset complete

	hda: irq timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }

	hda: irq timeout: error=0x00

	hda: ATAPI reset complete

	hda: irq timeout: status=0x

	 

	We have tried disabling hal daemon and have updated all
firmware. I have a case open with Dell but they are not helping much.
Has anyone seen anything like this? 

	 

	Regards,

	David Reta
